Search and rescue officials conduct a simulated survival drill, transporting a wounded "patient" on a stretcher to the ground in Nanjing, East China's Jiangsu province, June 19, 2012. A large-scale drill to prepare for earthquake disaster rescues was held at the training ground of the Nanjing Military Command. The drill focused on rescuing people from the earthquake and its secondary disasters during an earthquake measuring 8.0 on the Richter scale, and simulating the rescue procedures for the traffic accidents, building collapse, and nuclear accidents caused by earthquakes.
